GOLDEN Mediums & Additives are a range of products specifically designed to provide artists with precise control over their acrylic colors. These mediums and additives allow artists to manipulate various aspects of their paints, such as transparency, viscosity, surface sheen, and working properties.

One of the commonly used mediums is the Gloss Medium, which was previously known as Polymer Medium (Gloss). This medium serves multiple purposes in acrylic painting. It is particularly useful for creating glazes, which are transparent or semi-transparent layers of color that can be applied over a base layer. Glazes can alter the hue, add depth, or create subtle color shifts in an artwork. By using the Gloss Medium as a glazing medium, artists can extend colors, enhance gloss, and increase translucency in their paintings.

The Gloss Medium has an oil-like feel and a resinous nature, which promotes flow and leveling. This means that it helps the paint to spread more smoothly and evenly across the surface, reducing brushstrokes and creating a uniform appearance. The medium’s flow-enhancing properties make it easier to achieve a smooth and professional finish in your artwork.
